[quote=Anonymous]But for older kids, it is. Parents rely on school hours in order to go to work. I work nights and rely on DS being occupied at school between 8am (leave for bus) and 330pm (meet him at bus). DH and I are managing with homeschooling. We are lucky that DH can work from home and DS is fairly independent. But if DH had a job where he couldn't work from home, we would be in trouble. As it is, DH is a bit grumpy because his work is interrupted by DS and I'm grumpy because I don't sleep as much. There are many, many people who can't work right now because their kids are home 24/7 and they can't afford childcare/don't want to risk it. That's obviously not your sisters situation but the whole "school is not childcare" notion is ridiculous. [/quote]
